The first thing you need to know about breakdancing is don't call it that.

Real ones call it breaking and breaking is making its debut at the Olympics this summer in Paris.

But as the Olympics to me is not so much about sport, but a test of skills. and when we talk about skills breaking is the most

And without a trial, Einez was sent to a St. Louis detention facility known as the workhouse, notorious for its poor living

conditions.

Here how she and other advocates fought to shut it down and won on the first episode of this special three-part series out now.
